The sensation on my left side
Says a heart lives inside
The pain says it has been hurt too much
From the throb of seeking quests
Lonely vibrations echo deep within
Fantasizing to do so much more
In a self imposed depravation

A head crowded in excruciating pain
Thunders inside the walls that cry
Each drum roll pieces the sanity
To collapse the will that understands
Restlessness haunts the trapped silence
To walk within a day dream of sleep deprivation

Chills of cold hands that freeze your thoughts
Lay bare your vulnerability into ice cubes of melting needs
Into goose bumps growing on layers on layers
Molding the nerves into twitching
Jerking inner reverberations
So cold the heart stands on time
Waiting for the mind to move on

The stillness within hallow
Without the wind of motion
A space void of any movement or activity
A pristine death of sorts in silent sighs
The chapter not closed in a frozen waiting game
In which the revelation keeps the soul in a trance

A miracle of thought implodes the hell hole
Sending daggers of icicles shattering the silence
As the crystal walls shower down in tidal waves
Cleaning all the venom in a cholesterol sludge
That flows through clogged arteries in excruciating pain
Setting free the migraine trapped within

My right side jerks free into a trap that was left
Sending all of me whirling down a stormy trail
In the lightning of such feelings that
The mold was broken
From the numbed insides I exhaled the demons
In thundering rolls over the terrain now sterile
Your paradise now awakens in overpowering freshness

Lush sounds caressing my mind
Cries to sleep the self doubt of stagnating fears
The wilderness of the open sky
Has left me want to fly high

To conquer the heavens in a sigh
In treasures that reach the magic eye
They will be available in great supply
Rhyming inside making me very spry
In your new found youthful glide

Heart now be aware of attacks in heart burn
For my view has fresh breath minty cure all Rolaids
Migraine the force in not with you
To destroy the expanse I now live in
Which gives me such a wild ride
That the adrenaline will never die
For the pain worth living is in real life
